Kick-butt vehicles….in fog

Kick-butt vehicles in fog = gorgeousness! Awesome. Stunning, even. (I just love tossing vocabulary together in unexpected ways, like using “gorgeous” and “kick-butt” and “vehicles” all in the same sentence. It’s fun.)

Those of you who know me well know that I’m a big supporter of the good men and women in law enforcement and public safety. As one of my service projects during the holidays, I shot one of the local “Shop With a Cop” events for free. It was a terrific experience, and one that probably would have brought tears to my eyes had I not needed them to be blur-free so that I could see through my viewfinder. 😉

Even though I was shooting on assignment for a client, I made sure to look out for personal work/fine art print opportunities. And I found a great opportunity as I watched a very long line of law enforcement vehicles drive through the early morning fog to the store where the kids and cops would shop. I’ve shared three of those prints on my website. (Here’s a little preview, too.)

Officers! Deputies! Chiefs! These prints would look KICK-BUTT in your office! They’d look AWESOME! They’d look GORGEOUS! Contact me if you want a picture that will make you the envy of the department…

All Give Some, Some Give All

I had the privilege of attending the dedication for the Utah Law Enforcement Memorial on Saturday the 6th at the State Capitol. It was a gorgeous day and the ceremony/fallen officer “roll call” were a perfect way to honor the 126 officers who have been killed while on duty. Thousands of family members, fellow officers and community dignitaries attended, statues and plaques were unveiled, and quiet moments were shared by flags representing each fallen officer. My respect and appreciation for the members of law enforcement and public safety who honorably give their time and service and sometimes their lives in protecting our communities and lives was renewed.

Naturally, I brought my camera with me to the event and I will be posting the entire album of photos to my website by this Friday. In the meantime, here are a couple of previews..
